It’s doubtful that Steele even wrote most of his ‘dossier’. His role was as a ‘frontman’ they could say was a ‘trusted source’ because the FBI had used him before against FIFA (strangely his info on that earlier case turned out to be junk and wasn’t used, but I guess he remained on the ‘vetted’ list).
Steele went around the world to write down his dossier. He met many people and yes, he was integrating stories sometimes previously written by others like one by the Wall Street journal guy of FusionGPS.
These were all little stories invented by others that he aggregated into one dossier.. He grabbed everything he could find from all around the world, including from Ukraine where there was a war backed by Clinton and the Poroshenko government wanted Clinton to win.
Steele didn’t “travel the world” he sat his fat ass in his London flat and took Democrat money to lie while he soaked in his victory gin.
That he was a ‘Russian expert’ is a fabrication drummed up by early reporting by Spygate media hoaxers to give the preposterous claims ‘legs’.
Even the ‘pee-pee’ tape idea was lifted from an earlier event in Malaysia (Anwar Ibrahim - in a ‘scandal’ tangentially connected to Hillary Clinton - was imprisoned on sodomy charges following a trial in which an allegedly semen-stained mattress was carried into court. Six years later his conviction was overturned)
Their whole idiot crew is dumb and sloppy, lazy and brutish. They’ll be smarter when the stupidest parts get separated from the rest.
Steele is a fabulous liar, but he did do some work with FBI-Eurasia and intel in Moscow.
Steele, who worked in Moscow for the Secret Intelligence Service in the 1990s, prepared the 35-page document that alleges the Kremlin colluded with Trump’s presidential campaign staff and that Russian security services have material that could be used to blackmail the President-elect. Meanwhile, Yahoo News reported that Steele has connections to U.S. law enforcement, having worked as a consultant for the FBI’s Eurasian organized-crime section, helping to develop information about ties between suspected Russian gangsters and FIFA.
Read up on the non-stop failures of the British (and western) intelligence. Their only achievements have been covering up their massive, repeated failures.
Steele wasn’t on the team that broke the enigma codes; he was on the team that failed to notice the Berlin Wall was about to come down.
Steele is not dumb and even less a "frontman". He is a professional. Just look at the dossier itself. He perfectly mixed false/fabricated information with real information to give credibility to the dossier. Then he used his reputation to make the claims even more credible. The dossier is a professional job and it was assembled by him. Just look at the consequences.
And here is the spreadsheet Nellie Ohr shared with her husband Bruce; You can clearly see how she has placed in one column all the names from the ‘Steele Dossier’ memos and their original source, that 2007 WSJ article “How Lobbyists Help Ex-Soviets Woo Washington” (written by Fusion GPS founders Glenn Simpson and Mary Jacoby, to target Manafort while he worked for the John McCain’s 2008 campaign).
In another column a brief characterization is attached to the name, particularly noting any potential ‘links’ to Trump associates or family members.
A third column, largely empty, shows attempts to find sources that can substantiate the ‘link’.
This spreadsheet demonstrates rather clearly that the ‘evidence’ wasn’t gathered so much as worked backwards to conform to a pre-existing narrative.
Nellie Ohr likely had access to NSA databases through her role as a Russian Translator, CIA researcher, and/or FBI contractor.
And Steele’s obviously no genius, his ‘report’ claims were laughed off by his own sub-sources, some sourced info was likely fabricated entirely, and he bollocksed little details like forgetting to format Flynn’s name like all the others when it was (obviously hastily and sloppily) added into the report.

That's EXACTLY my point. He knew what he was doing: writing a narrative compiled from various sources with one goal : trigger the FBI into investigating the Presidential campaign of the opposition. Hillary had the email investigation on her and it was public. It looked bad (and it was). Hillary Clinton / John Podesta wanted the FBI to investigate their opposition. They hired Steele. It worked. They triggered an investigation. The only part that didn't work was that the FBI investigation was not made public during the election to make Trump look bad and swing votes to Hillary Clinton.
Except ‘superspy’ Steele didn’t write that; a 5’1” little commie lady married to a senior DOJ lawyer squish did.
And it didn’t work through a feat of tradecraft; it worked because they were all dirty, compromised, traitors who thought they’d never have to ‘show their work’.
Otherwise, I completely agree with you, and would only add that the public was mislead through their faith in public institutions, and mindless acceptance of media brainwashing.

“Assembled” is not ‘written by’.
Just put the dossier side by side with this:
